This KIT contains KMSKIT UPDATE #4. To use these files you need the files on the Fall '79, Spring '80 and the Fall '80 RSX SIG DECUS symposium tapes. 1. A flashy, super enhanced CCL. [344,61] 2. New features and reports for system accounting programs. [344,65] 3. New features for transient libraries. [344,51] 4. New HELP feature from Ray Van Tassel [344,40] ********************************************************************** editor's note: the uic [344,60] was submitted by Ray Van Tassle and appears here with Jim Downward's permission. ************************************************************************* KMSKIT's next major release, is scheduled for release with RSX11M V4.0. W A R N I N G W A R N I N G W A R N I N G 1. The ability to pass command lines to non-installed tasks will be modified. Only commands passed in quoted strings will be supported. ie /PRM ="command line" is legal, whereas /PRM=command_line will be illegal. /PRM may or may not be supported. If it is not supported a modification almost identical to it will be. ie /CMD="full_command_line". The difference between the two syntaxes is that "full_command_line" requires that a 3 letter MCR like command name occupy the beginning of a command line, whereas /PRM="...." automatically inserted a dummy three letter command name into the first three characters of the MCR buffer. At this time the /CMD="...." will definitley be supported, and the /PRM="..." is also supported but may get dropped. Please contact me if dropping support for the /PRM form will cause undue hardship. 2. HELP processing was previously aided by the inclusion of a matchall matchall character,'#' which if found in position 1 would match all keywords at all levels. It could only be placed at the very end of a file. The matchall was created before V3.2 used the # for synonyms. This causes a conflict and eronious behavior at times. For HELP for V4.0, the # matchall will be dropped in favor of a '*' wildcard which will be able to provide a matchall at any level rather than just being at the end of the file.
